[Bug 1871801] Re: ubuntu-release-upgrader translation is broken focal

[Lukas Märdian]

After doing some more testing, I am not able to reproduce the problem...
After installing the russian language pack and running
'LANGUAGE=ru_RU.UTF-8 update-manager -d' everything is displayed as
expected (see screenshot).

Could you please verify the package versions you've been using? Here are mine:
#:~$ dpkg -l | grep update-manager
ii  python3-update-manager                     1:20.04.10                                 all          python 3.x module for update-manager
ii  update-manager                             1:20.04.10                                 all          GNOME application that manages apt updates
ii  update-manager-core                        1:20.04.10                                 all          manage release upgrades
#:~$ dpkg -l | grep ubuntu-release-upgrader
ii  ubuntu-release-upgrader-core               1:20.04.19                                 all          manage release upgrades
ii  ubuntu-release-upgrader-gtk                1:20.04.19                                 all          manage release upgrades

Title:
  ubuntu-release-upgrader translation is broken focal

Status in ubuntu-release-upgrader package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete
Status in ubuntu-release-upgrader source package in Focal:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  ubuntu-release-upgrader package translation is broken.
  I checked for Russian only. Don't know about other languages.

  When I was doing partial upgrade of 20.04 I saw many strings not translated.
  I found them in ubuntu-release-upgrader translation. They were translated in 2012 but now they show untranslated in interface!

  "Do you want to start the upgrade?"
  "To prevent data loss close all open applications and documents."
  "%d packages are going to be removed."
  "You have to download a total of %s."

  Where are a lot of untranslated strings. I listed only some of them.
  Also all strings in embedded terminal of ubuntu-release-upgrader completely untranslated!

  update-manager has the same problem with embedded terminal output, which is completely untranslated.
  I also added bug 1871800 for update-manager
